Make sure that the tank is well rinsed out with methanol or
glow fuel before installation and that the pickup weight is
well clear of the bottom of the tank when held vertically.

For plumbing, use heavy duty silicone tubing of 2.5mm
inner dia and 5mm outer dia.

The suggested fuel tank size is 500cc or 14 oz. This will
give approximately 12-13 minutes running time when some
part-throttle operation is included.

Approx. 15mm

It is suggested to keep the distance between the carburetor and
fuel tank within 500~600mm.
